This is a farewell kiss, dog

So today was Bush's fourth and last time going to Iraq, not really sure why, but I guess he went to tie up loose ends. But instead the Iraqi reporters had something else in store by attempting to tie up his face with their shoelaces. Haha!

Apparently, an Iraqi journalist threw his shoe at President Bush,who ducked and narrowly missed being struck .

All I know is that if I were in Iraq, I would not be throwing no dainty shoe at Mister Bush. He would be getting a size 14 Timberland Construction Boot straight between the eyes.

But, it seems as if one shoe wasn't enough, because the journalist proceeded to throw a second shoe at President Bush, failing again. He was later wrestled to the ground by security and taken to some undisclosed place.

According to the New York Times, Bush tried to act all cool about the situation and stated that "All I can report is it is a size 10." But the surrounding Iraqi reporters co-signed that the journalist stated "This is a farewell kiss, dog," as he hurled the shoe.

Well, in other news this remix by Lo-Fi-Fnk is on repeat in my laptop, loves it ♥. Click the picture!!

"Maybe" We Can???



President - Elect Obama has been the first in a lot of things, but dare we say that he be the first President to keep his beloved Blackberry. I say "Maybe We Can???"

I mean according to the Presidential Records Act, President-elect Obama will probably be forced to relinquish his once cherished singular conduit to the outside world. I mean sure it is a threat to national security and what not, but how else will he get to visit THE BLOCK.

But never fear Super Obama is here, and he said that he is hoping to at least have a laptop computer on his desk in the Oval Office, which would make him again the first American president to do so.

All I have to say is who cares if he has a Blackberry or not, with a middle name like Hussein, I'm just ever so glad that he made it in office.
